Totally off-topic – Woolworths and the drought

On the 23 January 2007, Woolworths (Safeway) will be donating its entire supermarket’s profits for the day to the drought relief. The funds will primarily be used by the CWA for immediate support for rural families with the remainder to help fund research into sustainable farming practices. This is expected to be in excess of $3 million dollars.

So if you do your normal shopping on the 23 January you will helping farming families who are current doing it tough.

Please pass this on to as many people as possible.

  3. About a recent viral marketing campain:


    Woolworths’ ceo pledges support for drought reflief
    (yes the page really is mis-spelled)

    Actually help the farmers by boycotting the Duopoly (Coles-Myer and Woolworths). Both of whom are buying farm produce at very low cost, using the “drought” and farmer’s desperation to sell stock etc… by offering very low prices that is not being reflected at the till in the supermarkets. Better to help the farmers by buying from the Central market or places like the Sunday Farmers Market!.
